CSFI Economic Outlook: Andrew Hilton's view a year after lockdown

Why you should watch: Although it was a quieter week, CBs have made themselves heard - no change of policy on interest rates or QE, and damn the consequences. That is despite a consensus that the global economy will come out of the Covid tunnel with a head of steam that could well produce sharply higher inflation. Global equity markets are grinning ear-to-ear, but bond markets are flashing amber. Meanwhile, there are ominous signals coming out of China - and, indeed, out of Washington, where it is still not clear who is really in charge of policy.

In his Weekly Economic Outlook, Andrew Hilton, the CSFI’s Director, discusses the current crisis, its impact on the global economy, and what we may be missing.

Andrew is a former World Bank economist, who also ran a small economic consultancy advising international clients, particularly in the Middle East. He has an MA from New College, Oxford, an MBA from Wharton, and an MA and PhD from the University of Pennsylvania, where he was a Thouron Scholar and Kent Fellow.
